Serenade of Self-Destruction (Live) - Epica

Never could we see

What lies deeper

Seeming that our view

Can't be changed

Deciding where to go

And believe in your disaster

Deleting a future untold

This is the final deceiver

This is the devil in me

Expecting deeds in the making

Will show no final relief

Ever would we dance

With the reaper

Seething in a monstrous cage

Ideas meant to placate

When meeting your disaster

Are only for a desperate fool

Destructive thoughts to mislead us

Can come from deep underground

Believing sources unbroken

Will tear the legion apart

Will we be forever free as we unchain our souls

From life forever

You are just a slave to the dust

Another time, where you and me will be freed

With one more last endeavor

You cannot escape your fate now

No

Try me, don't deny me

Please embrace me in your peace

I want to fly into the bright

Would you please guide my last goodbye

Why won't you lie with me, my light's ending

On a night when I find, I'll take my final flight

Now come and see divinity where night turns day

So far away from heaven

You will never earn my trust

Provoke the need, give word to deed,

And dive into another god-like atmosphere

You will never find your way out

No

Try me, don't deny me

Please embrace me in your peace

I want to fly into the bright

Would you please guide my last goodbye

Why won't you lie with me, my light's ending

On a night when I find, I'll take my final flight

I'd rather die

Than breathe in my shame

They'll know my name

All hell in flames

For our faith

We proudly die

For it we would die

For our sovereign

All hell will arise

Hell will surely rise

We'll serve our cause

In earning reward

Earning our reward

Collision of skies

The ocean wept dry

Every ocean dry

Another's desperation flying through the emptiness

As my degradation throws me out the of line

Try me, don't deny me

Please embrace me in your peace

I want to fly into the bright

Would you please guide my last goodbye

Why won't you lie with me, my light's ending

On a night when I find, I'll take my final flight

Take the final flight

Into the serenade forever lost in time
